Napier

We took a trip to Napier the day yesterday to have a quick look around. Napier is the nearest seaside resort to where we are staying in Hastings. It was devastated by an Earthquake in 1931 and was rebuilt in the Art Deco style that was popular around then.

Today was spent by the barbecue - eating burgers and drinking beer with some of Martins friends. We then played poker and I got my ass kicked. Rain is promised tomorrow so it could turn out to be an Irish Christmas after all!
